Everyone is interested in war in that people don't want it to happen. I'm much more interested in peace than in war but it's important to understand why we fight.
When resources are degraded we start competing for them whether it is at the local level in Kenya where we had tribal clashes over land and water or at the global level where we are fighting over water oil and minerals. So one way to promote peace is to promote sustainable management and equitable distribution of resources.
I cannot imagine any writer who would not fight for his peace and quiet.
You have to do something in your life that is honorable and not cowardly if you are to live in peace with yourself and for the firefighter it is fire.
I always thought of myself as a moderate liberal a fighter for peace and justice. I never thought of myself as being all that far out.
Let me just say: Peace to you if you're willing to fight for it.
We are going to have peace even if we have to fight for it.
You either get tired fighting for peace or you die.
I am not only a pacifist but a militant pacifist. I am willing to fight for peace. Nothing will end war unless the people themselves refuse to go to war.
If terror groups are to be defeated it is national governments that will have to do so. In nations like India governments will have to call on the patriotism of citizens to fight the terrorists. In a nation like Pakistan the government will have to be persuaded to deal with those in their midst who are complicit.
In 'The King's Speech ' patriotism is utterly contained within a historical moment the third of September 1939 where the aggressor is clear the fight is clear it hasn't become complicated over time.
I have no country to fight for my country is the earth and I am a citizen of the world.
Women by their nature are not exceptional chess players: they are not great fighters.
Modern morality and manners suppress all natural instincts keep people ignorant of the facts of nature and make them fighting drunk on bogey tales.
And you have a record company behind it this is a key too you need people to fight for your records at least a little bit. So if you have a great song it's catchy and you've got a little bit of help I think that's all you need. But there hasn't been that in music.
I'm a big collector of vinyl - I have a record room in my house - and I've always had a huge soundtrack album collection. So what I do as I'm writing a movie is go through all those songs trying to find good songs for fights or good pieces of music to layer into the film.
If you talk bad about country music it's like saying bad things about my momma. Them's fightin' words.
My music fights against the system that teaches to live and die.
All of the sports have a safety net but boxing is the only sport that has none. So when the fighter is through he is through. While he was fighting his management was very excited for him but now that he is done that management team is moving on.
Everybody gets typecast in movies but you have to make wise choices. I'd say around 90 percent of movie casting is about the way you look so you have to fight that. If producers had their way I'd only be in action films but I'm interested in a more varied career than that.
I'm fighting the label of 'Black' actress simply because it's very limiting in people's eyes especially people who are making movies.
I feel like I'm a fighter. I've fought my whole life to get to where I'm at. I like fight movies. When someone gets knocked down I like to root for him to succeed.
I knew however that the next morning after the fight I would have to get away and I did just in time for a full company came early to look for me and were furious because I had escaped them.
Homey don't quit. What else are you gonna do? It's like those guys in the cartoon they get up in the morning check the clock and fight all day and after it's over they check the clock and go home. That's how it goes.
People think that if you look fairly reasonable you can't possibly act and as I only care about acting I think beauty can be a great handicap.
